Confidence starts with connection.

We help teens and young adults build real-world social skills through research-backed tools, relatable content, and step-by-step support.

Why Just Say Hey?

At Just Say Hey, we support teens and young adults to build social confidence, strengthen communication skills, and feel more at ease in everyday interactions.

Our content is based on the most effective techniques from internationally respected social skills programs, along with core principles from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which is widely recognised as a gold-standard approach to managing social anxiety.

Our resources are reviewed by psychologists and educators, and shaped through lived experience to ensure they’re not just effective, but also engaging, practical, and easy to follow.

Whether you're looking for structured tools, parent-friendly guidance, or a clear path forward, Just Say Hey offers the skills, support and structure to help teens grow one achievable step at a time.

✔ Young adults who’ve missed out on friendships, part-time jobs or study because of anxiety or self-doubt.
